Introduction Task Process Evaluation Conclusion

Process: Step 1: Research events of your country in the Interwar period. 1. Go and look at these online resources to find out information about the country you are making a presentation on. Groups are premitted to look elsewhere for resources but they may be penalized if the information they present is not correct because of a website. Online resources: (Resources with * next to there names are required by all groups) Interwar Period resource* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interwar_period Treaty of Versailles resource* http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/treaty_of_versailles.htm Germany resources Weimar Republic: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weimar_Republic http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/weimar.htm Nazi Germany:http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/Nazi%20Germany.htm United States resource http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/america_1918.htm Russia resource http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/russia_1917_to_1939.htm England resource http://www.great-britain.co.uk/history/1918.39.htm France resources http://worldatwar.net/nations/france/timeline18-39.html 2. Look for important events within your country during the Interwar Period. Then map out what events you want to use within your digital story. The digital story intention is to show that WWII was everyone’s fault not any country in particular. Step 2: Decide what technology you want to use to make your digital story. 1. There are three technologies to choose from to make your digital story. One is Comic life, which is a technology, which allows you to take pictures and make them into a comic book. Another technology is Imovie, which allows you to edit film clips into a movie. The third technology is garageband, which allows you to take sound clips and make them into a recording. 2. Once you have decided on what technology you want to use find plan out your digital story on paper. You should also get the appropriate tools (digital video camera, recording device) to complete the project. Step 3: Making a digital story. 1. Each group member is responsible for participating in the making of a digital story. Participation will be graded based on how obvious it is that a student is participating. For example in a film students will be asked all take part in filming/acting in the film. For comic life each student will make a percentage of pages in their digital story. For garage band each student will be asked to use their voice in part of the digital story. If group members fail to participate then the rest of the group will not be penalized.   2. Digitial stories will be graded according to the rubric. 3. Groups should be given class time to work on their digital stories. 4. Groups will present their digital stories as if the class were the council of victorious allied leaders in Europe.
